~ Distiliasion Of strong Liquors . Co..
paratively Modern Invention.
Strong liquors are modern invention.
The ancients knew of nothing more pow
Gful than light fermented wines, and
have left warnings enough of the abuse
a them. Alcohol was not discovered
Ill the Seventh century, although an
cider story exists of monk, Marcus,
Who collected and condensed in wool the
seam of heated white wine, and then
pressed out from the wool balsam which
he applied to the wounds of those who
fell at the siege Of Rheims, in the reign Of
Clovis l. He also mixed this balsam
with honey, and produced cordial which
brought the moribund back to life.
Clovis, however, did not wait for the ap-
preach of death before claiming his share
Of the cordial.
According to DIR. Stanford Chaille, the
distillation Of spirits from wine was not
discovered till the Twelfth century, and
spirits did not come into common use as
drink until the Fifteenth, Sixteenth and
Seventeenth centuries. Professor Ar
noldus de Villanova, in the Fourteenth
century, made panacea Of the water Of
life, which gave sweet breath, and forti-
fed the memory, besides being good for
sore eyes, the toothache and the gout,
and having other wonderful properties.
Distilled spirits came into use in London
In 1850, and had to be prohibited in 1894.
Michael Savonarola produced treatise
on making the water of life in the
Fifteenth century, which became a stand
ard authority on the subject, and was
followed by the work of Matthioli de
Sienna. These books gave the start to
brandy making in Italy, whence the trade
extended TO France.
About 1920 the Irish usquebaugh be-
gan to acquire reputation in England.
Before 1901 "brand wine" had begun to
be distilled in the low countries from ap-
pies, pears and malt; and in that year an
ordinance was passed at Tournay forbid
ding the sale of the liquor except by
apothecaries, partly because of the dear
ness Of corn, and partly because of the
drunkenness which this cheap brand wine
caused, ito the great prejudice not alone
Of homes and lives, but TO the extreme
danger of the souls of the drinkers, many
Of whorV had died without confession.
The art of extracting alcohol from
other substances was gradually discov-
ered, and liquors Of various names came
into use. The trade grew great, and the
present century has seen a new develop
ment Of it in the general application Of
the art of "doctoring liquors. Popular

Ednosisd 10 a Trade.

Trade schools, rs institutions where the
Industrial arts are specially taught are
called, are rapidly gaming foothold in
this country. The apprentice system
never can be revived in this country to
such an extent rs will enable the hun.
dreds OF young men who desire to learn q
trade TO do 80. The master workmen in
the various trades have neither the time
nor disposition TO teach young men the
secrets of their business. Even il they
had, the rules of the various unions limit
the number of apprentices, and an ap-
premiership is about as hard to obtain as
a scholarshipin in the army or naval schools
of the government. The establishment
of trade schools Is, therefore, a practical
educational movement that meets with
encouragement from the associations OF
master workmen in the various trades.
These schools, If they do not turn out
thoroughly skilled workmen, do furnish
young men with ground work which,
with practical experience, will very
quickly convert them into skilled artisans.
This fact is shown by the experience
Of the hundreds Of young men, be-
tween II and 81 years of age, who
have laid the foundation of their
knowledge of their trades in New York
trade schools during the past six years.
The instructors there are skilled workmen,
and the personal attention by them to
each individual student results in the
very rapid requirement by the scholar Of
the necessary rudiments of his trade. In
busy workshop such personal and con-
slant attention and the immediate cor
rection Of false methods or errors Of
Judgment are not possible. 1t is no
wonder, then, that young men seeking
to le ,rn trade make such very rapid
and seemingly phenomenal progress as
they do at the New York trade schools.
Their faults arc corrected Immediately on
being made, and they are taught how to
correct and avoid them.-New York
Times.

Quicklims Instead of Cremation.

Cremation seems to make but slow
progress, and comes, indeed, so violently
into conflict with popular prejudices and
beliefs that there is little chance Of its
gaining q footing in this country for the
next fifty or 100 years. Meanwhile our
cemeteries are overflowing, and some i'm
proved method of disposing Of the dead
Il an imperative necessity. Shall l be
shocking anybody If suggest that in all
cemeteries quicklime should be used. and
that strong oak coffins should be dis
cardsd in favor Of light wickerwork re-
ceptacles.
The idea is suggested by "a curious piece
Of information communicated to me by
an official Of Newgate, where, as is well
known, all murderers are buried in quick
lime. When Lpski was hanged the other
day a grave was dug for him, as usual,
within the prison walls. and, space there
being limited, the spot selected for the
purpose was that where Wainwright was
buried ten or twelve years ago. On the
earth being dug into. only faint streak
Of lime was found to mark the place
where the body of the notorious murderer
Of Harriet Lane was laid. Flesh, bones,
clothipg-everything had disappeared,
and the soil was, moreover, as sweet as
II il had done nothing but grow butter
cups and daisies. Imagine what would
have been the result had an ordinary
grave been dug into in this fashion. What
. mass Of corruption would have breath
ed forth contagion" TO the world. And,
be it remembered, the disappearance of
the body was, no doubt, as complete at
the end Of three months as at the end of
ten years. or Lpski himself there is now
probably only streak Of lime left. What
reasonable objection could there be to the
adoption Of quicklime as purifier Of our
cemeteries? It's only effect would be to
hasten the dissolution which we all know
to be evitable.-London Life.

The Arm Of the Future.

The increased energy of infantry fire,
which the introduction Of the repeating
rifle will bring with il, will probably not
cause any radical change in che nature OF
fighting. Such will probably first take
place when the discovery of another i'm
pelling force has taken the place Of gum
powder. The latter, when compared with
the modern development of technical
science. must be regarded as antiquated
means that only barely exists because no
proper substitute has been yet found for
II. That ii will be superseded is only a
question Of time. Ifan impelling energy
could be discovered which, without loud
detonation and smoke, would work upon
